A member asked:

Can drinking diet drinks with aspartame slow down weight loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Won't have any effect either way. You need dietary restriction, exercise, support in order to lose weight. Make sure you're not eating junk food or snacks while you're drinking the diet drink.
